Technically...yes. I did a V8 Driver & Hot Laps experience a while back, which involved me sitting in the driver's seat of a race car (with a Pro river riding shotgun) and I did a number of laps around a racetrack. I was racing, I suppose, as there were a number of cars on the track at the same time doing the same thing...but it wasn't under race conditions.
Have you ever looked up at the night sky and wondered whether humanity is truly alone in the universe?
Yes, many. Cats, mice, hamsters, a guinea pig, budgies ... and lately canaries, which is totally new to me. A few months ago, a canary showed up on my balcony. It took me 5 hours to catch him. I couldn't find his owner so I kept the little guy and ended up buying a second one so he wasn't all alone among my 6 budgies, lol.
Have you ever been to a beach where the ocean waves were higher than you?
Yes. It was in high school and I was given in-school suspension as a result, even though the person who issued the suspension said I was in the right and he would have done the same damned thing. He said, however, it would set a bad example if he gave me a slap on the wrist, though. So, suspended for a week I was.
Have you ever lost a bet? What did you lose as a result?
Well I used to play Poker semi-professionally so... >.> but aside from that, oh yes, usually on sports outcomes. The last World Cup (2018) I lost about $400 because I bet on Brazil to win. Oops.
Have you ever hidden a vital truth from someone for a specific reason, perhaps maybe because it would hurt them or something similar?
Yup. High School excursion (separate to the regular school camps) into the Outback of Australia. Warm, clear night, just me and a group of friends and a campfire and sleeping bags... Fantastic.
Have you ever done something really innocent that turned out to be really stupid?
Yeah last night, was walking out of my flat, snow covered the ground but I forgot yesterday there was ice there and slipped almost right away….sore bum from the fall
Have you ever regretted something that everyone says is a good idea?
I have, yes, and there are times when it's been severe especially when I was younger, like I had a preternatural sense something would happen and then that feeling hit me later.
More or less. But the car did not crash. The road was slippery because of snow and a driver suddenly lost control. His car slid around, basically did some pirouettes and finally came to a stop in a field next to the road without hitting anything. I bet the guy was more than shocked.
Have you ever eaten so much that there wasn't even room for dessert anymore? XD
